Answer:  A)  C5H8O2

Explanation:  Let's assume we have 100 grams of the unknown compound.  We can then find grams for each element by multiply it's percentage times 100g.  (e.g., carbon at 60% gives 60 grams of C).  Then divide the mass of each element by it's molar mass.  That will normalize the number of that element in relation to the others.  E,g,, the 60 grams of carbon, divided by its molar mass of 12.01 g/mole gives 5 moles of C atoms.  For H we get 8, and for O we get 2.  That gives us the empirical formula C5H8O2

How many molecules are in 6.0g of sodium phosphate?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

2.2 x 10²² molecules.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles in (6.0 g) sodium phosphate:

<em>no. of moles = mass/molar mass </em>= (6.0 g)/(163.94 g/mol) = <em>0.0366 mol.</em>

  • <em>It is known that every mole of a molecule contains Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10²³) of molecules.</em>

<em />

<u><em>using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mole of sodium phosphate contains → 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.

0.0366 mole of sodium phosphate contains → ??? molecules.

<em>∴ The no. of molecules in  6.0 g of sodium phosphate</em> = (6.022 x 10²³ molecules)(0.0366 mole)/(1.0 mole) = <em>2.2 x 10²² molecules.</em>

How many liters of 1.5 M potassium permanganate could be made if 152 g of the solute are available?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

0.64 L

Explanation:

Recall that

n= CV where n=m/M

Hence:

m/M= CV

m= given mass of solute =152g

M= molar mass of solute

C= concentration of solute in molL-1 = 1.5M

V= volume of solute =????

Molar mass of potassium permanganate= 158.034 g/mol

Thus;

152 g/158.034 gmol-1= 1.5M × V

V= 0.96/1.5

V= 0.64 L
